Is the CAT exam a necessary part of the admissions process for grade 7 applicants?
In response to the challenges associated with the Covid-19 pandemic and our collective desire to ensure health and safety, the Common Admission Test for students entering grade 7 in September 2021 has been suspended for the coming year. Grade 7 applicants will register to complete a learning snapshot at The Study.
We hope that this decision will help reduce some of the anxiety surrounding the grade 7 application, during what has been a disruptive time for children.
What are transportation options for students attending The Study?
The Study shares private bus transportation with various other private schools to and from the West Island, Laval, Ville Saint Laurent, Town of Mount Royal (TMR) and Nuns' Island. For more information please contact Jeannie Loo, Business Office, at (514) 935-9352 ext. 230. The nearest public bus routes are 66, 165, 435 and the 166. Each can be taken from one of these metro stations: Villa Maria, Guy-Concordia, Côte-des-Neiges.
What are the language requirements?
What are the chances that my daughter will get in?
While the main entry years are Kindergarten and Grade 7, there are often openings at other grade levels and we are always looking for bright young candidates to fill these available places. We suggest that you contact the Admissions office at any time throughout the year to discuss the possibilities.

What is the process for requesting a bursary (financial aid)?
Applicants requesting a bursary must apply online with Apple Financial (FACS). Bursaries are awarded based on an applicant's assessed financial need, as determined by a third party.
Who makes the financial aid decision?
Apple Financial (FACS) makes a recommendation to our Head of School on a confidential basis. The suggested amount in financial aid is based on your current year’s projected income and assets. All applications are analyzed and carefully considered. Since personal financial situations vary from year to year, FACS applications are re-evaluated on an annual basis.
Where does the funding come from?
Does The Study offer merit based scholarships?
The Study acknowledges student achievement and contributions to the school community in a variety of ways.Scholarships recognize outstanding academic results and promise and in many cases are renewable, provided the recipient’s academic work and contribution to the school remains at a high standard. These financial awards are available at various grade levels to both new and returning students.

Should you choose to apply online, we will contact you to schedule an online interview and assessment for your daughter.
